What should I do before having gastric sleeve surgery?

Since in a gastric sleeve, your surgeon is going to cut out a portion of your stomach. there is a special pre operative management you need to do to prepare for it. You'll need to adapt to an all-liquid diet two or three days before surgery. Limit your food intake to low-calorie sports drinks, gelatins, broth, and water (no sodas). On the night before your procedure, you must completely stop all intake, including water. In this video, Mr. Ahmed Ahmed talks about what you need to do before having a gastric sleeve.
